Al-nassr vs Al-Batin

Al Nassr have a strong chance to boost their Saudi Pro League title challenge this week as they host rock bottom Al Batin in Riyadh.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. are currently two points ahead of second-place Al Ittihad, and they will be confident of extending that advantage against an Al Batin side who have won just once in league action this season.

Ronaldo's own form continues to improve, after an initial adaptation in Saudi Arabia, with the former Manchester United star netting eight league goals so far in the Middle East.

Here's all the information for Al Nassr vs. Al Batin including kickoff times, TV/streaming details and projected starting lineups.
